The English School

We are a large, trilingual IB World School located in the North of Bogotá. For over fifty years, TES has been offering a British style, integral education and has a very strong positive reputation in the local and national community. We were one of the first IB Diploma schools in the country and also one of the first IB World schools to offer all three programmes in Colombia. We are proud of our heritage, history and tradition, and believe in keeping the philosophy of our founder, Mrs Masson, alive. In addition to our IB authorisation, we have received international accreditation with CIS and also received local awards from the Colombian Education Ministry for our contribution to society. TES philosophy today informs our actions and shapes our future as a community. Our students are ambassadors for their school and country, they are more than capable of making a positive change in the local and wider community. Our students are happy, have a love for learning and feel a sense of pride and belonging. We are a reflective community, committed to excellence and believe in preparing our students as much as possible for the future. Our Strategic Plan 2021-2024 is a living document identifying key strategies and goals. We are waiting for you with open arms.
